Flush Marine Companionway Hatch Design
Budget: €250 – €750 EUR
I'm in need of an experienced marine engineer to design a flush marine companionway hatch mechanism for a motorboat. The hatch needs to be able to drop down to grant access to the garage.
Key Requirements:
- Combination of Aluminium and Stainless Steel for the hatch mechanism.
- Manual operation of the hatch.
- Design should ensure the hatch is flush with the roof when closed.
Ideal Skills and Experience:
- Proven track record in marine design engineering.
- Experience with designing manual hatch mechanisms.
- Knowledge and experience working with Aluminium and Stainless Steel.
- Strong design and engineering skills.
The hatch should be designed to custom dimensions, which will be provided to ensure a perfect fit. Incorporate a sliding bolt mechanism for locking the hatch. The hatch must be fully waterproof to ensure no water ingress. The hatch dimensions should be as per the existing dimensions and the channel and framing. The final deliverables should include basic schematics for the overall design and if complete, full production drawings.
The final deliverables should include 3D CAD models in addition to the basic schematics and production drawings.
We have various ideas, the main think is the hatch needs to seal and raise when closed. Also be able to carry a person when closed.
Model is currently in Rhino and Autocad 3D
